Summary: Zechs decides to be spontaneous.
Zechs hurried around their quarters finishing up the last touches. His wife, having become stuck with an additional amount of paperwork, would be home at any moment, and he wanted everything to be perfect.
He didn't proclaim to be a good cook, but he was decent. As such, he'd prepared their meal: spaghetti, garlic bread, salad, and a lovely vintage wine. She loved the way he prepared spaghetti saying it reminded her of something she couldn't remember.
The living room had been cleared to make way for a dance floor. The soft strains of a classical CD were floating throughout the flat. Accompanied with the soft pitter-patter of the rain outside, it created a relaxing mood.
The bedroom was prepared, as well with candles lit to give the room a flickering, soothing glow.
They often took the chance to go out together when they had the time, but tonight, Zechs simply wanted his wife for himself. Call him selfish, but he didn't enjoy all the stares they received when they were out together with him being a former dead man and she an integral hero in both wars. He knew she didn't enjoy the stares, either.
The rattling of the door as a key slid into place announced her arrival.
He hurried to the door and opened it for her before she could turn the knob.
"Welcome home," he said softly into her ear as he took her coat, and her face lit up at the sight before her.
